Since there have only been maximum marks awarded to 4 dances, how would you rate them?

They are:

Jill and Darren's Jive (Series 2)
Darren and Lilia's Quickstep (2005 Christmas Special)
Mark and Karen's Salsa (Series 4)
Colin and Erin's Quickstep (2006 Christmas Special)

I would rate them as follows:

1) Mark and Karen's Salsa
2) Jill and Darren's Jive
3) Colin and Erin's Quickstep
4) Darren and Lilia's Quickstep

Craig doesn't know how much it hurts for me to post that list without the AT in there.

I agree Mark and Karen's AT was probably the best dance not to receive full marks.

Yes because that's the first dance you think of, reading the title of this thread. Bad bad Craig

1. Colin and Erin's quickstep
2. Darren and Lilia's quickstep
3. Jill and Darren's jive - I never saw it on TV, only seen it on YouTube, so I missed out a bit.
4. Mark and Karen's salsa - I like it, but it didn't excite me like it did the first time round (blimey, I sound like Arlene!)

I'd say:
1st Mark and Karen's Salsa= Jill and Darren's Jive
2nd Colin and Erin's Quickstep (it was great but not as good as the one he did in the final which got 39)
3rd Darren and Lilia's quickstep

I still think that Mark & Karen's AT, Jill & Darren's paso, Matt & Lila's Waltz, Denise & Ian's quickstep and Colin & Erin's quickstep (from the final) are all better dances than the dances that have got the perfect 40's.

Ought to rate the dances with one 10+, so 37-40's...and miss out the Xmas specials which don't count as they pretty much all are 37-40!

In next year's ITT, I expect Claudia to put Craig on the rack and not release him until he's said one hundred times 'I was guilty of undermarking Maren's AT. I should have given it 10. I'm very sorry.'

4) Darren and Lilia's Quickstep.

For me Jill's Jive and Paso were the best dances Strictly has ever seen by a mile! I would then put Mark and Karen's Argentine Tango and Colin's Quickstep from the SCD3 final.

Jill and Darren's jive by miles
Colin and Erin quickstep
Mark and Karen salsa (not a dance I enjoyed that much, for fear of being flamed!)
Darren and Lilia's quickstep (didn't like Darren's dancing at all)

personally I liked Jill and Darren's paso, Colin and Erin's American Smooth, actually preferred Mark and Karen's AT and Samba to their Salsa

Jill and Darren's jive - the only one in my opinion to properly deserve 40. Thought their paso was better though.

Darren and Lilia's quickstep
Colin and Erin's quickstep
Mark and Karen's salsa

Same here, I couldn't understand why it hadn't been included, and then I remembered Craig

They are:

Mark and Karen's Salsa (Series 4)
Colin and Erin's Quickstep (2006 Christmas Special)

I would rate them as follows:

1) Mark and Karen's Salsa
2) Jill and Darren's Jive
3) Colin and Erin's Quickstep
4) Darren and Lilia's Quickstep
Mine would be the same, an honorary mention to marens AT which should be number 1 on the list!
